When off-the-shelf software fights your workflow, we build software that doesn't. Custom development at Info Host Systems is for operations that have outgrown the gaps between the systems they already pay for — the quoting process that lives in three inboxes, the compliance evidence that lives nowhere, the field data that arrives by SMS and dies in a spreadsheet.
This is not prototype-and-disappear development. Everything we build is engineered to run on infrastructure you own, documented well enough that you are never locked in, and supported by the team that wrote it.
What we build
- 01
Bespoke line-of-business applications
The system of record your operation actually needs — quoting, scheduling, job management, reporting — shaped around how your people work, not how a vendor imagines your industry works.
- 02
Integrations
Your accounting package, your ERP, your logistics platform, your customers' portals. We connect the systems you already run so data is entered once and flows everywhere it is needed, with retries and audit trails instead of hope.
- 03
Mobile and desktop applications
Native-feeling apps for the devices your team actually carries, built on Tauri — small downloads, fast startup, and no Electron-grade memory bills on modest hardware.
- 04
Offline-first field systems
Software that assumes the paddock, the pit or the black-spot valley has no signal. Work continues locally and reconciles the moment connectivity returns — the same discipline OPR8 was built on.
Built on a deliberately boring stack
"Boring" is the compliment here. The stack under our custom work — Rust and Axum on the server, SolidJS and Astro on the web, PostgreSQL and TimescaleDB for data, Tauri on the device — was chosen for what it saves you, not for what it puts on a résumé.
Rust services run in a fraction of the memory and CPU of their equivalents in the usual enterprise languages, which shows up as smaller hosting bills and long quiet stretches between incidents. SolidJS and Astro produce web front-ends that load fast on rural connections and stay usable on tablets, laptops and phones alike. PostgreSQL is the database the industry has trusted for decades, and TimescaleDB extends it for the sensor and telemetry streams a modern operation generates. Tauri wraps the same front-end into desktop and mobile apps measured in megabytes.
The through-line is longevity: software that is still maintainable in ten years — by us, or by whoever comes after us. No framework churn, no build-of-the-week, no orphaned dependencies.
